Dear Juliet,
My love Juliet, I had a wonderful night. I remember when I was first laid my eyes on you. Your face made me smile. It is so beautiful. And when I let my eyes look at you, I just knew I had to talk to you. If I did not talk, I might die, because you are my love. Without you I would be nothing.
And I remember, when I saw you at your balcony. Your face, rested on your hand, reminded me of an angel that brings up of depressed men. And then I wondered to myself if the beautiful lady that lay in front of me will ever talk. That was when your lips moved in such a sense that the sweetest voice came out. Your voice rang clear in my mind. It was like a bird chirping in the trees. It is the noise that wakes me from my deepest sleep. Your voice goes through my ears and stays in my mind, for it is like an angel’s voice. And then I remembered when I walked closer. I could sense you, even from a distance. I could sense that something good was about to happen.
Then you, Juliet, and me had a conversation. It was probably the best moment of my life. I talked to the girl in my dreams. Those eyes of yours, which glitter in the dark, are like the stars that shine beside the moon. They are like the jewels on a king’s crown. When I look into them, I am as if hypnotized. You are the angel of my dreams. But I apologize, because this is not the main point of this letter.
I am here to tell you, sadly, that I believe it is better not to pursue our relationship. I know this may sound very surprising, and you might hate me right now, but I say everything for our own good. First of all, our parents are enemies. I don’t believe the Montague and the Capulet will ever find peace. If we continue our relationship, we might soon get married, then lots of things must be hidden. This even includes the most basic thing, our love for each other. If our family finds out, they will be extremely mad at us, and we might have to break up with tears. If we separate now, it might be better because we aren’t that close yet. Again, I am saying this for our own good. I still love you Juliet, but I’m afraid sometimes life has to be like this. I am sorry that we have to end like this. I am sorry that our families are enemies. Please think about this Juliet. Juliet, you will never be out of my mind, but I believe some things have to end. I will never forget you.
Best wishes, Romeo
